First Impressions of the Key Modules
Right out of the box, the camera unit and the front touchscreen module are the first two things that catch your attention. Both are cuboid-shaped, made of sleek coin-grey metal, and have a bezel-less OLED screen on one of the sides. The identical-sized modules are roughly as big as a watch face and weigh about as much as a golf ball.
